system info delay

Subject: system info delay

Snow Leopard 10.6.1.

While trying to test a script, I encountered a long delay where there should not be any delay. I finally traced the problem to a single command. Here is the script ...

set elapsedTime to (current date)

system info

(current date) - elapsedTime

This script returns 32 sec on my Mac.

The system info command belongs to the StandardAdditions.osax

and until today, I had not noticed any delay at all.

Switched from a Standard to an Admin user ... same result.

Restarted ... this fixed the problem.

Now, I'm curious. Anyone know anything specific about why this happened?
